séduisant et enrichissant !!
Nous avons séjourné ici afin d'approcher la culture et l'histoire sud africaine, ce que nous avons retrouvé auprès des propriétaires des lieux. Nous étions 2 adultes et 2 enfants en bas âges. Les grandes et les petits on trouvé leur place, même dans le tuk tuk auprès de madi pour faire un tour de quartier! venez y c'est génial !!
